HTC Thunderbolt Photos Leak Ahead of CES

HTC Thunderbolt, the first LTE phone to land on Verizon, has been pictured in all its 4.3-inch glory.

Besides the humongous screen, other interesting features of note is the kickstand on the back with Google branding and the slightly disappointing fact that, according to Droid Life, which came into possession of 12 images of the device, it will only feature a single core CPU. It's also worth noting that the device is visually nearly identical to the HTC Desire HD.

We'll likely find out more about the device next week at CES. As far as the significance of LTE (Long Term Evolution) goes, it's the widely adopted 4G-ready mobile network standard that will finally enable mind-numbing data transfer speeds (in its current state, it theoretically offers peak download rates of 326.4 Mbit/s) on our mobile phones.
